Thoroughly disgustedFirst set of bulbs didn't sprout so Burpee replaced them. Second set I immediately planted in my large iron kettle outside( current temps in 80's). Must be 2 weeks or more and these haven't sprouted either. Will not buy from Burpee again

Disappointed, all one color.I was very disappointed that only 4 of 5 roots grew and they were all one color, Salmon. I planted them in 1 large wooden planter.The plants that grew performed wonderfully and are still blooming!

Love the CannasThey were easy to grow. I planted them in both a raised flower bed and in containers on my patio. They are beautiful!
